Ji Tianxing stayed in his father's room all the time, and never left from noon to the next morning.

When the first rays of sunlight in the morning shone through the window and reflected in the room, Ji Changkong finally woke up.

Ji Tianxing suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and said in a concerned tone: "Father, you finally woke up, how do you feel?"

Ji Changkong opened his eyes weakly, looked around with a hazy look, and fell on Ji Tianxing.

"Skywalk...... Don't worry, you can still bear it as a father. ”

"This bit of injury and twists and turns is far less than the battle ten years ago, how can it be difficult for me?"

Ji Tianxing nodded silently, feeling a little sour in his heart.

The father who was once high-spirited and majestic and domineering is now pale and weak on the bed, but he still has to support his injuries to comfort him.

Ji Changkong looked at him sideways, and asked in a weak voice: "Tianxing, my father may have to retreat and heal for a few months, even if he recovers from his injuries in the future, I am afraid that his strength will drop sharply." ”

"Although my father has been waiting for you to grow up, and then pass on the position of head of the family to you. But the father can't wait, so he can only hand over this important task to you in advance. ”

"My father knows that the Ji family's current situation is very difficult, and this burden is too heavy. But as a father, I believe in you, and I will definitely survive the difficulties and keep the century-old foundation of the Ji family......"

Of course, Ji Tianxing knew the predicament faced by the Ji family, and he also felt a lot of pressure.

But at this point, he could only grit his teeth and take on this heavy responsibility.

"Father, don't worry, no matter how hard it is, I will support it and will not let you down. ”

"I'll put you in the secret room later, and you can heal in peace. ”

Ji Changkong nodded slightly, a smile squeezed out of his pale face, "Tianxing, the Sword Shadow Hall only obeys the orders of the family master, and you can trust it." Other than that, you have to be careful with everyone else. The Ji family is in turmoil, and many people are afraid that they will have different hearts. ”

"At all times, you must remember that everything must be done in order to put your own safety first, and only by living can there be hope!"

"Father, I remember. Ji Tianxing nodded solemnly.

Subsequently, he arranged for two guards who were absolutely loyal to his father to send him to the underground secret room, so that his father could heal his wounds in peace.

As soon as Ji Tianxing finished dealing with this matter, a guard outside the door respectfully reported: "Young Master, the second elder has summoned you to the lobby to discuss important matters with the elders and deacons. ”

Hearing this news, Ji Tianxing's face suddenly changed, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

"Hmph! The second uncle is in such a hurry to convene everyone to discuss the matter, it must be for the order of the head of the family, is he already impatient?"

With a cold snort in his heart, he straightened his clothes, and left his father's residence and rushed to the lobby of the Ji Mansion.

When he arrived at the lobby of the Ji Mansion, he saw a group of children of the Ji family gathered at the entrance of the lobby, whispering and discussing.

Seeing that Ji Tianxing was coming, the group of Ji family disciples hurriedly shut up and looked around pretending to be fine.

Ji Tianxing ignored those young people of the same generation and stepped into the lobby with a calm face.

There were already twelve people sitting in the lobby, except for the two old men, the other ten were all middle-aged men with a dignified bearing.

Ji Tianxing is no stranger to these twelve people.

Among them were three elders, his eldest uncle, second uncle, and third uncle.

The other nine people are the heads of the Ji family, and they are all in charge of the workshop business in Yizhou, which can be described as the nine pillars of the Ji family.

Sitting at the top of the left side is a middle-aged man with a fat head and big ears.

This person's name is Ji Dajiang, Ji Changkong's eldest brother, Ji Tianxing's uncle.

However, Ji Dajiang is the most cowardly and incompetent among the four brothers of the Ji family.

He had neither business acumen nor forging talent, and what he was best at was eating, drinking, prostitution, gambling and pleasure.

In the past, his father treated this uncle well, and gave him enough money every month to raise him, so he did not participate in the internal fighting of the Ji family and had a neutral attitude.

Sitting next to Ji Dajiang was the second uncle, Ji Rufeng, wearing a purple robe, with a majestic bearing, and a fierce light in his eyes.

As for the third position on the left, the middle-aged man with a thin figure and a dark face sitting was Ji Tianxing's third uncle.

The third uncle's name is Ji Changhe, and he is a person who sees the wind and steers the rudder and is good at drilling camps.

Although Ji Changhe is not as ambitious as the second uncle Ji Rufeng, he is also a restless guy.

He secretly engaged in a lot of small actions to seek personal gain, and colluded with Ji Rufeng, and in recent years, he has often disobeyed his father's words.

The talents and temperaments of the four brothers of the Ji family are different, but when it comes to martial arts and business talents, it is undoubtedly that the old four Ji Changkong are better.

Therefore, Ji Changkong succeeded to the position of head of the family fifteen years ago.

Except for the three elders, Ji Tianxing's understanding of the nine principals was not so profound.

He only knew that among the nine principals, there were five Ji family members and four people with foreign surnames.

The five Ji family members seem to be closer to Ji Rufeng, but the four people with foreign surnames have always been loyal to Ji Changkong.

At this time, when everyone saw Ji Tianxing walking into the lobby, they all turned their heads to look.

Ji Rufeng and Ji Changhe, as well as the eyes of several principals, were obviously scrutinizing and ill-intentioned.

Ji Tianxing walked through the lobby expressionlessly, and walked straight to the position of the head of the family.

Now he holds the order of the head of the family, and he is temporarily the head of the house in place of his father, and he should sit in that position.

However, just as he walked to the position of the head of the family and was about to sit down, Ji Changhe suddenly spoke.

"Tianxing! everyone present is your elders, and if you don't see the courtesy, you still want to sit on the main seat. ”

"It's not that the third uncle taught you, aren't you a little too blind?"

Ji Changhe looked at Ji Tianxing with a smile, with the posture of an elder teaching a junior.

Ji Tianxing frowned, and said expressionlessly: "My father handed over the order of the head of the family to me, and now I am temporarily the head of the family, what's wrong with sitting on the throne?"

As soon as the words fell, Ji Rufeng sneered and retorted: "This Ji family is not Ji Changkong's Ji family alone, he privately handed over the family master's order to you, but with the consent of the elders and the principals?"

"Moreover, my Ji family is powerful, and the industry is spread over most of the Qingyun Kingdom, such a huge family, only a strong person with both ability and political integrity can be qualified to be the head of the family. ”

"You're not just a teenage hairy boy, how can you let you control the power of the Ji family, isn't this child's play?"

"If something goes wrong and it affects the foundation and safety of the Ji family, can you be responsible?"

Ji Rufeng didn't hide it at all, and made it clear that he didn't recognize Ji Tianxing as the head of the family.

Ji Tianxing secretly hated in his heart, and asked him with a cold face: "Second uncle, what do you mean? Could it be that you still want to forcibly seize the order of the head of the family and control the power of the Ji family?"

Ji Rufeng glanced at him and said with a smile: "I have discussed with several elders and principals, and they all feel that you are not qualified to be the head of the family. ”

"Therefore, you have to hand over the order of the head of the house today, and I will keep it for the time being. ”
